There are menus everywhere, unfamiliar tools, and features that seem impossible to understand.

You won't be asked to learn advanced techniques before understanding the basics, and you won't be left wondering why something works. Every chapter builds naturally on the one before it, making it easier to follow, practice, and remember what you've learned. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInstead of teaching Blender as a collection of disconnected tools, this book shows you how everything fits together.
